So my husband and I wanted to get out of Colorado this President's Day weekend and hit a slot canyon in Utah. We've done the Irish Canyon and Little Wild Horse/Bell Canyons before. My husband doesn't have much rock climbing experience and I've been out of the rock climbing scene for 6 years now--so we prefer a beginner canyon until we can gain some good climbing experience. We'd ideally like to stay within 7-8 hours of our home (basically SW Denver) and we'd like to bring our dogs (leashed of course). If anyone has any good suggestions, I'd love to hear them. We'd be good with suggestions of canyons that aren't necessarily "slot/skinny" canyons as well. Thanks everyone!

Winter Slot Camp and Repeat Jr. are also good options. And they are probably an hour or so closer to Denver...
